The frontline is fighting against the elites of Lordaeron, and there are restorationists with different stances working secretly in the rear.
Faced with this dilemma, if Sarlayan were to make a choice, he would put the overall situation first and personal gains and losses second.
Duke Faculest obviously didn't think so.
He would rather put down the dangerous defense line and return to the rear to stabilize his basic base.
In the words of Danmaku, this is called internal peace before fighting outside.
[Old Chang Kai applied...]
[This is not what Chiang Kai-shek first proposed. The old witch Cixi also said, "I would rather be a friend than a domestic slave." 】
[It can only be said that these people regard personal gains and losses as more important than national interests, so it is natural that they will end up like that. 】
【presumptuous! The Qing Dynasty has its own national conditions! (funny)】
[Wake up, your country died early in the morning, and Chang Kaishen’s Republic of China also died. 】
[The king is the boat. Common people are water. Water carries the boat, water overturns the boat. 】
Sarlayan: "What does this sentence mean?"
[It means that the public opinion of a country is like water, and the ruling class is like a boat floating on the water. The water can carry the boat or capsize it. 】
[If the ruling class of a country disobeys public opinion for a long time, it will be like sailing against the current of a river. As the floods become more and more serious, sooner or later the boat will capsize. 】
Sarlayan: "I see...I have learned a lesson."
"boom!"
Duke Faculest had no intention of talking nonsense with the traitor. Just when he was clenching his weapon and planning to pursue the victory, the originally closed castle door was suddenly forcibly opened from the outside.
A figure jumped high from the door, charging towards Valeela in mid-air, who was about to be attacked by the two swords.
Since she had to protect the Alterac nobles who were in the way during the battle, Valeera was somewhat unable to use her hands and feet. She was temporarily suppressed by Duke Faculest, who was focused on attacking with all his strength. The battle situation was very urgent.
Two legendary thieves fight fast and move the battlefield very quickly.
Although Haas wanted to help, as a warrior, he could not keep up with the speed of the two men's transition.
At Alex's suggestion, he began to protect those nobles who had no fighting ability, so as to relieve Valeela from worries.
Now that she no longer had to worry about the nobles who betrayed Faculest, Valeera could finally let go.
But from the beginning of the battle to now, the rhythm has been firmly controlled by Duke Faculest, who has taken the lead. It is very difficult for Valeela to make a comeback, and she must wait for a suitable opportunity.
When the castle door was blasted open, Valeera guessed that Sarlayan had arrived in time.
An idea came to her mind, and she deliberately used a flaw, and as expected, Duke Faculest took the opportunity to rush in.
Without Sharlayan's support, Valeera would definitely not be able to dodge this move.
It was precisely because of her trust in Sarlayan that Valeela was able to deliberately create loopholes to lure the enemy into attacking.
Sharlayan lived up to her trust and arrived just in time before the weapon fell on Valeela.
Using the charge variant skill "Support" to gently knock Valeera away from the spot, Sarlayan raised the crossed Valargar swords high, just in time to block Duke Faculest's attack.
"clang!"
The weapon in Duke Falkrest's hand is not extraordinary, it should be a high-level epic weapon of the same level as Quel'Sera.
But no matter in terms of weapon quality or attack power, Duke Faculest, a thief, cannot compare with Sarlayan.
From Duke Faculest's perspective, he could only feel a blur in front of his eyes, as the enemy in front of him suddenly changed from female to male.
When the weapon struck the sword in the opponent's hand, even if Duke Faculest tried his best, he could still feel the huge shock force from the weapon.
"drink!"
Following Sarlayan's soft drink, Duke Faculest, whose right hand was numb, was thrown backwards by the violent force.
The experienced Duke Faculest adjusted his posture in mid-air in time, rolled his body backwards a few times to release his force, and it seemed that he should be able to land safely.
But Sarlayan has always been unyielding when he gains power, and when he thinks that Valeera was almost injured at the hands of this old sinner, his anger cannot be restrained.
"Heroic Throw!"
Since the last time he learned to throw weapons, Sarlayan specifically asked Salorian to learn more systematically the weapon throwing skills, namely Heroic Throwing and Fragmentation Throwing.
Compared with the powerful fragmentation throw, the lethality of the heroic throw is obviously much weaker, but it is better than it is fast enough.
Duke Faculest, who was about to roll to the ground, suddenly felt a chill in his heart. During the roll, he subconsciously shifted a little to the left.
"Qiang!"
The Varagar war sword thrown by Sarlayan almost missed the side of Duke Faculest's face and penetrated into the ground. The strong wind when the sword blade passed across left a deep mark on his face. scars.
"Tsk! How dare you..."
When the wary Duke Faculest glared at his enemy with anger, what he saw was a pair of scarlet red sticks that made his whole body shiver.
"Zi Zhong! Who allowed you to hurt her?"
The angry Sarlayan did not suppress his emotions, and launched the dragon transformation without any concealment.
The thief's dynamic vision is very strong. When Sarlayan flapped his wings and lunged forward, Duke Faculest clearly captured his movements.
But it's one thing to be able to see it, and another thing to be able to react to it.
Sarlayan, who transformed into a dragon, completely let go of his usual self-restrained dragon power and deliberately focused all the dragon power on Duke Faculest.
The level suppression of high-level creatures made Duke Faculest's movements a little sluggish, and his evasive movements were obviously half a beat slower.
"boom!"
While escaping from Sarlayan's collision, Duke Faculest's left shoulder was slightly brushed to the side, and his entire left arm drooped weakly on the spot.
The thieves were all experts at dual-wielding weapons. Duke Faculest, who had lost one of his hands and was so painful that he was sweating on his forehead, was paralyzed by Sarlayan's wild and offensive suppression.
"Shadow Step!"
In the extreme state of being about to be struck by a big sword, Duke Faculest launched the Shadow Step in a thrilling way, suddenly teleported into the shadow behind Sarlayan, and sneered at his one-handed scimitar that looked like Undefended back.
When Haas and Alex's expressions changed dramatically and they tried to warn them, Valeera's expression was very calm. She even had time to think about other things besides the battle.
"Hehe~ He's angry because of me."
"clang!"
The high-level epic weapon made a sound of gold and iron when it hit Sarlayan's back.
The high-quality weapon cut open Sarlayan's clothes and the golden dragon scales covering his body. Scarlet blood spurted out from the wound.
"wrong!"
Duke Faculest, who had succeeded with one move, suddenly changed his expression: "It's too shallow!"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Sarlayan's lips, which had not yet turned around: "That's it?"
"call!"
Feeling the whistling wind coming from his side, Duke Faculest, who was old at attacking, could only curl up his body to reduce the impact.
"Snapped!"
The thick golden dragon tail whipped Duke Faculest's side as Sarlayan turned around. Sarlayan, who was the closest, could clearly hear the sound of "cracking" and cracking bones.
With his left hand crippled and at least three ribs broken, Duke Faculest was beaten and rolling on the ground without any intention of fighting. He reluctantly threw out the flash powder and tried to flee the scene.
"Suck~"
Through daily sparring and training with Valeela, Sarlayan was extremely familiar with the thieves' routines.
He had already guessed that Duke Faculest, who could not defeat him, would find a way to escape. He closed his eyes before the other party sprinkled the glitter powder, puffed up his chest and took a deep breath.
"hold head high!!"
The weakened version of the flaming dragon's breath in the draconian form swept through the hall. Hath, Alex, and the Alterac nobles could not see what was happening at the scene shrouded in blazing flames, but they could hear Faculeth. The shrill scream of Duke Te.
After recovering from her dazed state, Valeera suddenly disappeared from the spot. Just in time for the dragon's breath flames to dissipate, she used Shadow Step to teleport behind a charred humanoid object, and used the handle of the dagger to kill the screaming Duke Faculest was knocked unconscious repeatedly.
After taking back the draconian transformation, Sarlayan glared at Valeela with some dissatisfaction.
"Why don't you just kill him?"
Valeera rolled her eyes angrily: "I'm not injured, not even my skin is broken, please calm down!"
"The main force of the Syndicate is still resisting the offensive of the Knights of the Silver Hand on the front line. If we don't want to cause trouble on the front line battlefield, this guy can't die for the time being."
